Thierry Neuville remains six points ahead of the World Cup: “We are still limiting the damage”

That may be true, but not very elegant of him. We are certain that the Saint-Vithois would not at all appreciate Martijn accusing him in the same way. A rally crew must stand together in front of the cameras. At this level, with the pressure and the difficulty, a mistake can easily happen. On one side, as on the other. And is completely forgivable. We win and we lose together!

Ogier wins, Neuville and Evans back to back

A 911 for Martijn

Let's hope that this mini slip-up will not spoil the perfect osmosis between the two men who in recognition had launched a bet. Noting that special stage 12 was 9.11 km, Martijn declared: “If we win it twice, I’ll buy myself a Porsche 911.”And Thierry after his second scratch in this section of Pecurkovo confided amusedly: “This is going to cost my co-pilot dearly.”

”It's a shame because we've had two good days so far, this Sunday was less good, I slammed on the brakes directly to avoid hitting, in vain. We still finished on the podium and we scored the good points won on Saturday, Thierry Neuville consoled himself this Sunday. In the end, we keep our small lead in the championship so it’s not too bad even if opening the road to Portugal won’t be easy.”

Like the seventh place of Grégoire Munster (after the troubles of his teammate Fourmaux), sixth in the Super Sunday with a fifth time. Enough to score five points. But we have the impression that his obligation to finish the first time without putting a foot wrong prevented him from letting go and demonstrating his true potential. It will be for the next round on asphalt at the end of the season.

Finally, a missed opportunity, unfortunately, for Tom Rensonnet, second in Junior before retiring on Saturday following a radiator problem causing the engine of his Fiesta to overheat.
